Please take note that the workshop schedule has changed, to begin at 10 a.m. (EST) (instead of 9 a.m.) and end at approximately 1 p.m. (instead of 3 p.m.).

This discussion will take place between federal, State and regional leaders and industry representatives. The January 6 conference will focus primarily on proposals for new electric transmission, and the costs of these proposals.

The conference is a technical discussion between policy leaders, however, members of the public are welcome to attend.
